sh012 (Elevator Lobby)

PLEASE READ

For all these shots I'm supplying the footage, Blender project files, Nuke scripts and any textures or HDRIs etc that were used. Due to the nature of the Blender EXR renders being massive, I can't share the full sequences sadly. I've included 1 frame from a cool moment in each shot so you can see how they're used and play around with the AOVs. If you'd like to get the full sequence, you can render the entire shot using the .blend file attached. The outputs are all set up in ...

I'll be uploading the rest of the shots over the next few days. It takes a bit of time to package them all up. If you download them and something is missing just let me know!

Hulk MASTER .blend file

Hey all! The Hulk video is just around the corner! I'm hoping to release it at some point next week. Just finishing the last VFX shots and needs some sound design!

To keep you all ticking over til then, here's the master file I'm using to append into all the shots. The original model isn't mine but I've done a huge amount of work on the shaders and textures to get it looking more photorealistic. Some of it's simple like making the model higher poly so it holds up close to camera. But I'...

HULK Teaser...

Hi all! Here's a little sneak peak at the next video. I'm FINALLY tackling the Hulk transform that everyone's been asking about for nearly 2 years. It's gonna be a big one! Currently comping the first few shots and then going to be getting stuck into some serious CG fun... It's going to be very cool! Hopefully out before Christmas.

STAY TUNED

I can't upload the stock footage as it's something I bought. But you can use any stock footage you have!

ULTIMEATE VFX WORKFLOW!

Hey all! Here's some of the supporting files from this video to help with adopting a similar workflow.

I've attached the folder generator. This only works for windows but similar setups can be done on mac and Linux, it will just take a bit of googling to workout how to format it!

This is the Davinci Resolve export tags:

%TimelineName_%ClipName_%TrackName_v001

And this is the expression I use in the Nuke write node to name the render the same as the script automatically...

Prehistoric Render Challenge

Blender scene and Nuke NC comp of my render for the challenge! I've just uploaded one frame of everything instead of the image sequences as the files are huge. Enjoy!

CG Street Project Files

This is one of the animated scenes from the Green Lantern video. It includes the whole CG street, photoscans, rigged assets and all the camera animation etc. It's a big file so you have to download all the .zip files and recombine them to rebuild the blender file.

Enjoy!

Green Lantern Suit Up!

This is my favourite shot from the video. This suit up shot has all the manual 3D matchmove of my body with the rigged 3D model as well as the lighting animations etc. I've also attached the HDRI I took in my living room. I took it out the blender scene as it was making the file too big to upload here. But feel free to plug it back in when you download the files to get the same look as me!

Lantern Lamp Shot

This shot turned out great! This blender file has the lamp model I made, all the lighting animation, object track of the ring and then the 2 particle systems I made to create the main beam of particles and the smaller, swirling ones for some extra detail.

Green Lantern Model (Rigged)

This is a totally custom made 3D model of me as a Green Lantern. All the textures for the suit are hand painted 4K texture maps (which took days...) and the face is sculpted based on a photoscan of my head and then 4 different hair particle systems for the long hair, short hair, eyebrows and beard. Enjoy!

I'm Back!!!

Hey everyone! Sorry it's been so quiet on here for a few weeks. If you're in the discord server you probably saw that I went away for a couple of weeks on a shoot in the middle east for something at work and on the way back I got Covid... So I've been out of action for a bit. BUT I'm back and I've got something really cool cooking up. Here's a little sneak peak! Video and project files coming soon...

Thor Lightning Project Files

This is the .blend file for the main shot in the video. It's got the rigged, animated photoscan of me along with the procedural lightning made with geometry nodes that snaps to nearby surfaces. Pretty cool stuff!

Engine Thruster Animation

This is the blender project file with all the thruster effects in it. It's my favourite shot of the film!

Spaceship Master File

This is the scene master file with all the models, textures, lights, cameras etc. Unfortunately, the .blend file was too big to pack all the textures into as built in assets. (Patreon has a 200mb limit!) So I've attached a separate zip file with all the textures. Just download it and relink them and you'll be good to go! Enjoy!

Fish In A PC - Project Files

Here are all the project files from my video on making an album cover! The renders were too big to upload to Patreon so just render the UTIL and BTY again from Blender once you download it. You only need 1 frame! Feel free to post it in the Discord server if you make anything cool! I'd love to see. Enjoy!!!

Treasure Planet Comp (Nuke Script)

Took me a little while but I got around to transferring one of the comps for the Treasure Planet video over to Nuke NonCommerical so everyone can use it. I comped it all in Nuke Indie but unfortunately you can't copy and paste nodes between NC and Indie so I had to remake this shot from scratch. But here it is! (I've only uploaded one frame of each of the EXR render passes as the files are MASSIVE)

Sail Transition Shader

This is the shot where the sail transitions. I did it with a few noise textures and animated a colour ramp to make them change from black to white over about 8 frames and disolve the sail on and off. This then goes into a mix shader with a transparent node to make the sail disappear when the noise texture turns black.
